I have made a honey ale and had a great time designing and tweaking the recipe in software.
It seemed come out perfect except for one thing. When bottling today it just does not seem to have a prominent honey flavour - one could even say that it is a normal ale. I used 1kg of a standard honey.
Next time (next week) I am going to try a lager and I am wondering if any honeys are better than others for giving an enhanced honey flavour. I will try one of the specialist ones but was wondering if anyone has experience with a particular type that might give a unique flavour.
